Hi everyone, I've recently bought a coffee table ( black clear tampered glass ) from OM. Paid $300 plus.. quality sucks when they deliver... Saw the same coffee table at Urban Foundary , cost about $1200. But quality is superb.
Somehow you paid for what you get.

Hi,

Bought a rug & 2 ottoman from them lately. Personally, I think the quality is pretty good and the price is quite reasonable if you compare with places live Evov Living, Luxur ( All made locally ). Of cos cannot compare the quality with those of European country lah.
I'm intending to go back to get a sidetable and maybe my dining chairs....still looking and hoping they will have more sale! haha!

Hi Khaler,
Before i purchase my table from OM, i have already informed the sales gal working there that i do not want to receive the new set with scratches ( similar to their display set )
When the set was delivered to me, there were scratches ( not as much as the display set though) and the workmanship is not really good.
But with the price you pay, what can you ask for?

Hi Schnauzie,

Urban foundry is at 18 Purvis Street. Prices quite steep..gotta bargain real hard.
But quality..fantastic!!
Here's the link http://www.urban-foundry.com
I bought my dining chairs from there. It's steel legs with leather seats. very sleek designs they have.
Cheers!

Hi Nellie,
I am seriously gettin my stuff from AIR too. Love their stuff, so clean, so simple ;)

the feel of urban-foundry is pretty similar to AIR,.urban foundry must bargain??

Hi Schnauzie,
Yeah, you are right! Simplicity yet classic.
I just love their design.
Usually places like AIR, X.tra, OM , XZQT etc etc, you can bargain off 10-20% off the displayed price as they may have allocated a certain commission for "some people" if required.. ( heehee..not very nice to say it here )

Hi,

Just to add that for OM, I managed to get 15% discout and for XZQT, 20% discount.

Must also add that both OM & XZQT's service is pretty good. Received my goods from them with no problem. Also, OM even allowed me to exchange my stuffs after I realised that the rug didn't fit my living room's decor.

I just ordered my furniture from OM and am very pleased with their service. Me and hubby have been to countless furniture shops around Spore and still find that their designs are more contemporary and designer looking yet without having to burn a big hole in your pocket.

Furniture will only arrive in April, so hope that their delivery and after sales service still remains good.

Hi All,
I want to get a dining table from OM. But not as a set with the dining chairs. Any advise if I can still ask for discount? If I will to buy the tables and chairs, its 20% off. But only table no discount. Is this "true"?

Hi Wendy,
yaa..i heard that their policy is like that. Perhaps, u can ask for lesser discount...say 10% if u buy the dining table alone. tis is just my idea..actually i dun know whether they'll allow since i never buy any item from them...

Hi Susan and other OM customer,
May I know how much deposit we need to place if we buy from them (is it 30%??).
 

joia

New Member
Hi am blessed,
I had to pay a 50% deposit.

Hi Wendy,
Not sure if they will allow you to enjoy 20% discount if you only get dining table and chairs because the offer applies if you take up the package which is 9 pieces of furniture

1. 2 bed side table but i exchanged for 2 bar stools
2. dining table
3. dining chairs.
4. tv console
5. L-shape sofa
6. side table
7. coffee table.
8. bed

Hiya I'm also a satisfied customer of OM. Bought my sofa, 2 TV console (LR and MBR) from them. After they deliverd the TV console, found that one of the drawers seems to be lose and the rubber beneath came out. OM guy came to fix it promptly without questions asked.

Basically their furniture designs are modern contemporary. Some of the furnitures look like XZQT but of course the prices are much much cheaper

Hey guyz...
i bought a coffee table (displayset) last month at a 30% discount cos the salesgirl told me is LAST piece but when i visited their store again at LC last week i saw the same set and it's going at a much cheaper price! I really daren't commit myself to buy their items for fear they will have further reduction. Heard their items like U.P 688 can go as low as $288. Any such encounters out there? thanks!

hello Tim Francis,

the tv console u looking at, if i'm not mistaken..is abt 2.2m, retailing at $1200 b4 disc. I got mine for $800+ for a 1.8m version.

Gelaine and xiao is that US dollars or SGD are you talking about?

They just got back to me and said $1200.

Should I have any problems shipping such a peice of furniture to Australia do you think?
 

gelaine

Hi Tim Francis,

It is in SGD.

About shippin gto Australia, perharps you got to check with OM themselves.
happy.gif
But it's fairly big... so i wonder if there would be any defects in the midst of delievry.

it's in SGD... I think u better ask them about it. There may be scratches.. mine had an almost invisible one but my hubby saw it...and they changed it immediately...i was so impressed...

Gelaine and Xiao

At this stage they have said they dont ship internationally, but I have sent an email back saying id pay extra if they could. Im sure if they packaged it well enough and labelled it as fragile it would be okay.

They tell me its 2.2m long, what is the height, how many peices does it dissasemble to and how big are they? It might help me in finding out how much it will cost to ship.

Hi Tim Francis,
Probably can't help u on dimensions as mine is the 1.8m one.
happy.gif
If it is the same, think the total height is about 31cm.

U may want to check out OM website to take a look at how the actual thing looks like. It's the Zeus model but due to colour lighting it may look slightly different. What u are looking at is the one at the bottom left of "sideboards" -- model Zeus . That's 2.2m, i got the white one on the right also "Zeus" but 1.8m.

As it's spray paint, thus there might be scratches which would be obvious especially on black. So you may want to consider before purchasing. The legs are of aluminium metal. and for 2.2m one, there is additional centre leg in the middle. And there are two side compartments using tempered glass with a drawer in between. Not sure if all these can be disassembled.

Gelaine thanks for that. Is it actually made of wood do you know?

With the scratches again I reckon if the person who packed it did a good enough job, added enough air bubble packaging, newspaper, polystyrofoam beads etc etc etc made it nice and stuctually secure I don't think there would be a problem.

If it came down to it would there be any chance that you could accept delivery, package it up and forward it on to me. You live in Singapore correct? Id pay $100+ for your time and to cover packaging needs/postage etc.

I thought I might have had a contact over there but it turns out it was in Hong Kong.

Or else I might end up renting a mail box over there and have it automatically forwarded to my address.

Still doing some research on how I can best get it here, let us know what you think.

Hi Tim Francis,

Yeap... it is made of wood with spray paint for the glossy look. Just that the legs are aluminium metal.

I dunno how we can do the transporting of the cupbaord... u have any idea how to go about it?

I can try askign our Singpost for u.

Yeah if you could do that Gelaine would be great. Im trying to find a repuatable company that ships to Australia.

Just on the Internet there are companies that will package it up, put it in a container and send.

Hi Tim Francis,

Seemed that they do not have this service at Singpost. Anyway... about delivery via container, i heard sometimes the extreme heat and pressure will actually melt the items though i can't really imagine how. But apparent it does happen.

Actually was thinking why dun u customised your console over at your side.
